Item Description

A sharp, silvery-bright, carrollite octaehdron is aesthetically set atop calcite matrix on this very showy and excellent matrix specimen from one of the famous mines in Katanga. The modified octo is 1.1 x 1.1 x 1.1 cm. The display view is pristine and the contact on back is out-of-sight. Good matrix carrollites, such as this, are not very common - usually they are in massive, ugly calcite or rock. Ex Herb Obodda dealer.
